My girl isn’t eating , she’s widening her jaws a lot , i also think she might be showing signs of some scale rot or a bad shed & she’s also been glass surfing quite a bit. all bad signs from what i’ve watched so far and im also having trouble keeping a good temp for her

I am a rather new owner myself but you should try to cover a good portion of your top mesh with aluminium foil. That keeps both humidity and warmth inside. For humidity I also got the tip to pour water in a corner so it goes under the substrate while the top stays dry and then evaporates through.
